Or you can subsribe to CLA - Chris learns aviation on Youtube which is where we will communicate it as well. There is also a video or two of an earlier version of the C42 flting in MSFS 2020.

I see your video around Ireland earlier. Can’t wait to give it a go.

Do not hesitate to subscribe to the channel as we are in process of creating more C42 related content…. :slight_smile:

Hi, my son is currently learning to fly in a C42 and would love to be part of the testing.

Is it possible to C42 beta test in msfs2024?

When are you closing the beta testing in msfs2020 and planned release date?

Many thx for your c42 work . I am learning on the C42 A&B. Popham included

Moderator Edit:

I have a real C42A and would like to use it at home to practice takeoffs and circuits. I can directly compare the real and the simulated aircraft.

Regards

Ich habe in Real eine C42A und würde gerne das zuhause zum üben von Abnflügen und Platzrunden nutzen. Ich kann direkt das reale und das simulierte Flugzeug verglweichen

I have an Icarus C42 A and B with over 200 flight hours. Can I participate in the testing?

Ho and thanks for the offer. Beta testing has finished but we will soon launching the final version for sale and once done I am more than happy about your feedback

Hi beta testing is finished but we would be glad to have your sons feedback once it is out! :slight_smile: Also this is why I let create the machine in the first place. To support learning to fly at home as learning in a C42 myself.

Hi Karsten,

I will reply in English as forum language is English. Beta testing is finished but we hope to launch the final version soon on platforms like simarket.com so you can enjoy testing it and practising circuits and take offs and landings. If you are up for a challenge try to take of from RWY 17 in Tandragee Northern Ireland. FOr an even bigger challenge try to take of from RWY 35 at the same airfield….

Hi,
